Chapter 1540: Chapter 1540: She Is Waiting for You
At this moment, Ethan Barnes quickly led his men to find Carlotta, and his people completely surrounded Mina and Carlotta.
Mina swiftly placed a knife against Carlotta’s neck, glaring at Ethan Barnes with hatred, "King Hayden, I didn’t expect you to catch up with us so quickly."
Ethan Barnes, dressed in black, his tall and handsome figure shrouded in the night, his face as beautiful as jade, his forehead accentuated as he walked steadily in black boots, like an emperor descending from the night sky.
Ethan’s gaze fell on Mina, and he smiled a thin smile, "I wondered who dared to run wild in my territory. Turns out it’s you, a bunch of second-rate, death-defying fools."
Mina, having been severely belittled right from the start, gritted her teeth in anger. But with Carlotta as her hostage, she was unafraid, "Princess Hayden, it seems King Hayden truly cares deeply for you, choosing you and personally coming to rescue you."
Nobody was more excited or happier than Carlotta. Initially, she was unsure if Ethan would choose between her and Celeste Linden. She was afraid Ethan would leave her for Celeste.
But Ethan had chosen her, he had come to rescue her.
"Brother Ethan, I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. If I hadn’t been deceived by these people, none of this would have happened." Carlotta shed tears of remorse, feeling she had wronged Ethan too deeply.
Ethan Barnes pressed his thin lips together, responding with just two words, "It’s fine."
"Hahaha," Mina laughed out loud immediately, "King Hayden, Princess Hayden, of course you think nothing’s wrong. I think the one in trouble is that little beauty Celeste. She’s a pregnant woman, and she just bravely saved your Princess Hayden."
Hearing Celeste Linden’s name made Ethan fix his gaze on Mina.
Mina continued, "Just now, everyone wanted to have some fun with Princess Hayden, take some videos, and send you a green meadow. Your Princess Hayden cried so hard, she nearly wet herself, but at the crucial moment, it was that little beauty Celeste who saved her, drawing everyone’s attention. Now, our boss is interested in your little beauty, he took her away directly."
Saying this, Mina intentionally sighed, "What a pity. The little beauty Celeste still thought you’d rescue her, especially since she’s carrying your child. Who knew King Hayden’s feelings for Princess Hayden are so deep, he directly abandoned the mother and child."
Ethan pressed his thin lips into a cold arc, no one could read his thoughts, making him intimidatingly profound at this moment.
Carlotta didn’t want to think about Celeste Linden anymore, nor did she want to hear any news about her. Indeed, earlier she had saved her, she was repaying evil with kindness, but the more she did so, the more it highlighted the darkness and baseness within Carlotta’s heart.
"That’s enough, Mina, don’t say any more." Carlotta spoke up.
Mina snorted, applying more force with the knife, drawing a line of blood on her neck, "Princess Hayden, why are you in such a hurry, are you afraid I might expose your good deeds?"
Carlotta panicked quickly responded, "Don’t talk nonsense, I did nothing."
"Really? Then who was it that told me Celeste Linden’s identity in the car, it seems to be you, right?"
"I..."
"Initially, I never planned to capture Celeste Linden, but you told me she was King Hayden’s little mistress kept outside, and that she was pregnant. You said taking her would completely manipulate King Hayden."
